When idiot Ron Schneider was born in 1963, the infant mortality rate was 29/1,000. It is now close to 5/1,000. So, no, children were NOT healthier when he was a kid. And he was, clearly, dropped on his head.

Understand this: most Black people see the Graham Platner controversy through a completely different lens than most white people— our lived experience. So stop telling us it’s no big deal. It’s no big deal to YOU.

Timothy Mellon is the donor of the $130 million for the troops.

In case you’re wondering what he’s like, he said in his autobiography that Black people have become “even more belligerent” because of social programs, and people who receive government assistance are slaves.

Republicans are AWOL - they continue the government shutdown to protect Trump from the Epstein files, as Americans are about to run out of food, from our farmers to our citizens who rely on SNAP.

We need to show up for one another at local food banks:
volunteer, donate.

“Covid-19 vaccines, credited with saving millions of lives during the pandemic, set off a powerful alarm that rallies the human immune system against cancer and nearly doubles the median survival length of patients, according to a new retrospective study.”

Sooner or later, some kid is going to take one of these tear gas canisters that ICE cars are leaving as a parting gift and toss it back into their vehicle.

Border patrol agents deployed tear gas on the 3700 block of North Kildare where residents say a landscape worker, a resident, and a woman on a bike were detained. Video from a resident.

Agree this is a must read. It's also a gut punch:

"I was the editor of Governing, a magazine & website covering state & local governments. But after facing increasing internal censorship pressures — largely to avoid critical coverage of President Donald Trump — I refused to go along, & I resigned.

Gil Durán @gilduran.com · 1d

A must-read on the silent censorship taking place in the US press.

So much of this is going on in American newsrooms right now, and not just to kowtow to Trump.

Example: Consider how little is being written about the extreme radicalization of Silicon Valley.

I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Autocrats, at times, use the military to shut down their parliaments and rule by executive orders. That Johnson chooses to shut down Congress so willingly is just a breathtaking abdication of responsibility to represent the body politic.

So you should really watch this. Just 2 minutes. But a window into the truly radical nature of the people Trump is nominating.

When pressed today, the nominee to be Ambassador to South Africa refuses to oppose reinstituting laws to prevent black people from voting in America.

Angus: Canada is reconsidering that relationship with China. Why? Because we can no longer trust the US.

And we know that we have 150, maybe more, Canadians in custody at ICE detention centers. We had two Canadians under Chinese custody and it caused a huge outcry. We now have over 150 in the US.

From the owner of the house tonight:

This is my partner and I's house. We were in Toronto but rushed home when we saw this happen. Thank you to everyone that showed up, took video, and shared it. There was no warrant. We're trying to figure out the next steps for the individual that was violently detained here and have been in contact with the company he works for. You all that came out to confront these people are the actual patriots. Please don't ever forget that and keep coming out to support these individuals being terrorized in our city.

KSTP reports: “More than 600 [Allina Health] doctors, physicians’ assistants and nurse practitioners plan to give a 10-day strike notice on Friday. The union representing them says 90% of its members voted to go on strike, meaning they could walk off the job as early as Nov. 3. … This could be the largest strike of its kind in U.S. history, affecting 60 clinics in Minnesota and one in Wisconsin.”
